If someone told me at the start of the season I'd be getting linked with these teams I 'd have laughed. “It is flattering to have your name in these conversations. You have nice stuff said about you and get linked with top clubs, but for me I have only wanted to play for Newcastle. “I have had a small taste of it, and I want more. I want to get fit and be in for a whole season."
